Due  to  the  war  and  high  printing  costs,  there  will  be  no 
1943  large  cloth-bound  edition  to  the  Standard  Catalogues 
on  Coins  and  Paper  Money.  However,  supplements  have 
been  prepared  by  the  authors,  and  will  be  mailed  postpaid 
at  25  cents  each.  Just  mark  on  your  bid  sheet  your  request 
for  either  or  both,  and  they  will  be  sent,  and  the  cost  added 
to  your  bill,  for  coins  purchased  at  this  sale. 

'Phis  will  help  you  to  keep  up-to-date  on  present-day 
values  of  coins,  and  it  will  also  help  to  get  a price  list  of 
this  large  sale,  showing  what  each  of  the  1647  lots  of  Num- 
ismatic Material  of  all  kinds  is  worth  on  today’s  market. 
Price  list  of  this  sale,  50  cents. 

It  was  grand  to  meet  so  many  collectors  again  at  the 
recent  annual  convention  at  Cincinnati.  My  sincere  thanks 
to  all  collectors  for  their  active  and  loyal  support  of  my  auc- 
tion sales.  May  your  hobby  be  a real  pleasure  to  you.

TERMS  OF  SALE 

All  bids  by  mail.  We  have  over  two  thousand  customers  who 
are  interested  in  these  sales.  They  live  in  every  state  of  the  union, 
and  in  some  foreign  countries.  They  can  not  all  come  to  Freeport 
in  person  each  month  to  attend  an  auction.  In  fact,  not  one  per 
cent  of  them  could  do  so.  In  fairness  to  those  who  live  at  a dis- 
tance, and  cannot  attend  a sale  in  person,  we  request  all  bids  to  be 
sent  in  advance  of  the  sale,  by  mail. 

Coins  will  be  bought  below  your  bids  where  other  offers  permit, 
as  this  is  competitive  bidding,  executed  in  good  faith. 

No  unlimited  bids  will  be  accepted  from  anyone,  at  this  sale. 
Mark  your  highest  limit  or  bid  on  the  bid  sheet,  and  we  will  buy 
as  much  under  this  price,  as  other  actual  bids  permit.  Get  your 
bids  in  before  the  date  of  sale.  Don’t  wait  until  the  last  minute. 
Help  us  with  our  work  and  we  will  help  you  get  something. 

The  usual  charge  of  5%  will  be  made  for  executing  your  bids. 
No  charge  is  made  on  anything  not  actually  purchased.  Postage 
and  express  is  paid  by  the  purchaser. 

Receipted  bills  are  not  sent  out  after  your  remittance  as  this  is 
unnecessary.  Your  check,  draft  or  money  order  itself  is  a receipt. 
However,  if  a 3-cent  stamp  is  enclosed  we  will  send  receipt. 

Be  certain  that  you  bid  on  the  lot  you  wish  to  buy.  We  will 
correct  errors  and  adjust  claims,  but  you  should  not  expect  us  to 
pay  for  your  mistakes.  Be  careful  in  making  your  bids.  Be  sure 
that  you  bid  on  the  lot  you  wish  to  buy,  and  at  so  much  per  piece. 

Bids  must  reach  me  by  the  morning  of  the  sale.  Mail  them  in 
time  so  as  to  avoid  disappointment.  At  each  sale  some  bids  arrive 
too  late  to  be  executed. 

Between  the  seller  and  buyer,  my  position  in  describing  the  con- 
dition of  coins  and  bills  has  been  neutral.  My  classifications  are 
generally  considered  to  be  conservative  by  the  collecting  public. 

It  is  easy  to  bid  by  mail.  If  you  do  not  know  how  much  to  bid 
on  any  items,  write  me  giving  numbers  in  catalog  and  I shall  be  glad 
to  inform  you  as  to  values.  It  is  useless  and  a waste  of  time  to  make 
low  bids  that  have  no  chance  of  success.  I sincerely  hope  that  each 
collector  acquires  some  nice  lots  from  this  sale  that  give  him  a real 
thrill  and  joy  of  satisfaction. 

New  bidders  or  customers  sending  in  bids  for  the  first  time  must 
positively  give  first  class  reference,  bank  reference  preferably,  or 
else  send  a deposit  of  at  least  25%  of  the  total  amount  of  bids.  Oth- 
erwise, their  bids  will  not  be  accepted;  application  of  such  deposit 
will  be  made  upon  successful  bids;  the  seller  reserves  the  right  to 
demand  payment  upon  successful  bids  before  delivery  in  his  sole 
discretion.  To  those  known  to  me  who  have  established  credit,  a 


3 


reference  or  deposit  is  not  necessary  and  purchases  will  be  sent  out 
promptly  after  the  sale.  In  appreciation  of  this  courtesy  the  pur- 
chaser remits  promptly. 

The  terms  are  prompt  cash  settlement  after  sale,  and  no  time 
given.  Collectors  who  are  not  certain  that  they  can  pay  promptly, 
are  asked  not  to  bid.  The  coins  in  the  sale  are  the  property  of  my 
clients,  and  I must  make  prompt  settlement  for  them. 

Remit  by  money  order,  draft,  check,  or  in  any  way  most  conve- 
nient. Stamps  accepted  for  accounts  that  are  below  one  dollar  only. 

All  coins  and  other  items  are  guaranteed  genuine,  unless  other- 
wise stated. 

Please  bid  by  the  piece  unless  stated  to  bid  for  the  lot.  Thus, 
if  there  are  12  pieces  in  a lot  and  you  wish  to  pay  $6  for  the  lot, 
then  bid  50c.  At  each  sale  someone  bids  by  the  lot.  Don't  do 
this — bid  by  the  piece. 

NOTE — A printed  list  of  all  the  prices  realized  at  this  sale  will 
be  sent  for  fifty  cents  (50c).  Send  coin  or  stamps  with  your  bids 
so  as  to  reserve  a price  list,  or  if  you  prefer,  we  will  add  the  cost  to 
your  bill  of  items  purchased  for  you  at  this  sale.  Keep  posted  on 
coin  values  as  they  are  today,  and  order  a price  list  in  advance  of 
the  sale.  After  the  sale  they  cost  $1.  Before,  they  are  50  cents.
